The battle that birthed our great nation was a battle well worth waging. Our founders declared that "taxation without representation" was unacceptable. So much so that men risked fortune, injury and even life in fighting a revolutionary war to break free from tyranny.
Two-hundred thirty five years later, our nation finds itself facing a new tyranny – legislation without representation. Are there Americans willing to fight this time to break free again?
Regardless of which poll one reads, the majority of Americans are clearly opposed to the health-care bill in its current form. As few as 52 percent and as many as 70 perent of Americans have said "no." Yet 220 representatives in the House and now 60 representatives in the Senate have voted "yes."
Is that what this group of politicians deems "representative" of the will of the people?
If so, I am thoroughly convinced we have all the elements in place to spark the second American Revolution – a war that must be fought for the principles of a government "of the people, by the people and for the people."

I'm with you. Not that I want it or agitate for it, but one can sense the anger in this country just bubbling up to the surface as every route to reign in D.C. has been met by stone cold deafness on the part of our elected officials and a willing media propaganda machine that spews the socialist line daily on the idiot box. They've rigged the game and we're running out of (or have run out of) options other than a full-on revolution complete with guns, bullets, tar, rope, feathers and 537 dead swinging bodies from the steps of the Capital.
Again, not that I agitate or even wish for it, but one can sense it's coming. I just hope it happens sooner (so I can fight it) rather than later (when my children have to.)
Collectivists love the flow of blood. Whip out your guns, start spraying the neighborhoods with bullets, kill your neighbors, all that stuff, makes the collectivists grin like it’s their lucky day.
See, collectivism feeds off of social disruption.
There’s a better way: prayer, repentance and moral instruction for our children.

Wars is hard.
Enslavement is so much easier.
That is what you are saying.
All hail the slum lords in DC!
Where’s my government cheese!
Maybe we can vote next November and slow the boil a little bit more?
I agree the politicians are symptoms not the disease. However, sometimes the doctor needs to “treat” the symptoms as well as the disease. We can start thinking about taking them out naked, and after that is done, and they are all floating down the Potomac we would need to put into affect severe restrictions on who can vote: i.e. literacy tests, personal appearance at the polling place, inability to vote if receiving taxpayer money, real residency requirements imposed upon those who wish to register to vote, etc. etc.
Yes. We do not need one huge gathering. We need lots of fires, all over the country, all on the same day, all at the same time.......

A couple of questions, if I may:
1- What do we do if the elections were ACORNed a la Al Franken?
2- What Constitution? It’s not followed at all, why should we follow the Constitution unilaterally to keep the usurpers in power?
Remember #1, Al Franken stole the election while everybody watched. This made them 60, the feared one-party rule.
Merry Christmas.
Hmmm. That is anarchy.
Actually, Obama would call it terrorism.
He’d love to have that excuse.

You are assuming the constitutionalists will start it. We will disobey something,, or a monstrous Tea party will get too effective, and THEY will initiate the use of force. Just watch,, the constitutionalist side will not start it if it was to come to that.
Example,, 2010 clearly gets stolen by ACORN, a truly massive demonstration results, the government declares emergency and attacks the demonstrators. Something like that will happen.
Don't forget the Media. As pathogens, not only they voted the bastards in, but they also are covering up their crimes, misleading the populace and accusing everybody who disagrees with them of domestic terrorism. They should suffer first and foremost, constitutionally or unconstitutionally that is.
We have plenty of laws to use to our advantage if we take the initiative. We can challenge questionable votes and we can out organize the slackers at Acorn. We also need to have more conservatives working at the voting precincts and the election boards.
As to the Constitution it is still there if conservatives use it to challenge everything these scum bags do through the courts.
I have been saying this for 6 months + now. We need civil disorder , sit ins , blocked traffic , we need to have these Marxist politicians scared shitless. Time is almost running out . We need BOLD , Aggressive action and we need it now.
God can move mountains but you better bring the shovel .
Surround CBS NBC stations with a few thousand angry conservatives every week . The will HAVE ot report on something. We need to ORGANIZE the 1000s or like minded groups out there . We need a meeting of the tribes so to speak. We need to drop our pet issues and come together underone banner to take the country back . Talking on here accomplishes nothing. Sever action is needed. These bastards just shorted our lives
Funny, when I woke up this morning I was thinking about all the renters who are permitted to vote on my property taxes. I'm truly fed-up with parasite leftists who, like masticating flies, exist for no reason but to suck the profits of our labor and the joy from our lives.
The vote today will trigger something for sure. It is my hope that it will just be voting against them. But if the Senate and the House keep resisting the will of the people who put them there, it may come to active resistance. I hope not, but it might.
And how did those 220 Representatives and 60 Senators attain their offices?
Polls have no place in a representative republic.
The only poll that matters is every two years on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, when all 435 Members of Congress are up for election.
If you look at THAT poll, you'd have to say that the American people are getting EXACTLY what they asked for.
Hope they like it.
>>>> “We need to hunt our representatives down like dogs.
>>>Then there’s the matter of those who put them in office. Politicians are but the chancres, those who elect them are the pathogens.
And this is the reason we need to separate ourselves from the idiotic population bases that vote these !@#$$% into office. We could shoot every single elected official and they would just be replaced by the next group of marxists by the people in their districts.
Eff ‘em... really.. to hell with ‘em... I do not want to live under their tyranny, even if they do have enough votes to cram it down our throats. We need to strike back in a way that gets as close to the root as possible. Since none of us wants to kill millions of brain dead morons we have no alternative than to completely sever the ties with them.
